mallory & steven hamby bio

As artists, educators, and lifelong creators, Steven and Mallory have built their business on a shared belief: that art helps people notice what’s meaningful and hold onto the moments that matter.

Steven’s journey began in Nashville, inspired by the city's vibrant visual culture. With a B.F.A. in Graphic Design from Middle Tennessee State University and a minor in Book Arts, he’s been working professionally as a designer since 2010. His career has included roles at the Tennessee Performing Arts Center and the Tennessee State Museum, where he designed everything from promotional materials and large-scale murals to published books. He’s also worked extensively in freelance and corporate design, always blending creativity with precision to deliver thoughtful, intentional work. Currently, Steven shares his knowledge of art and design as an art teacher.

Mallory's background combines the structured creativity of design with the expressive, emotional power of painting. She hold degrees in Art Education and Interior Design from Middle Tennessee State University and Mississippi State University, and since 2009, she has been an elementary art teacher. Alongside teaching, she creates custom artwork—often focused on landscapes, meaningful places, and facades of schools and businesses—that capture personal stories through paint.

Together, they bring over two decades of combined experience in visual storytelling. Whether it's through Steven's graphic design expertise or Mallory's custom fine art pieces, their work is about more than aesthetics—it’s about connection, memory, and meaning. They are honored to help individuals, schools, and businesses bring their stories to life through art that speaks.
